For those receiving this message out of context with only a bug number
(for example via a Python team subscription on tracker.debian.org like I
did), the affected packages are listed below. Kenneth, please could you
include the name of the affected package in any subsequent mass-bug-filing
or multi-package mails?

Any DD can log in to coccia.debian.org, aka mirror.ftp-master.debian.org,
to get information from `dak rm --no-action` - but this is not particularly
well-documented, so I'm sending how I got the information rather than
just the information itself, in an attempt to pass on this knowledge.

Thanks,
    smcv
